If you look at games from Boston to Oregon State. Ice was consistently playing 20-25 minutes. Since then; her minutes have tailed off a bit and she is more in the 15-22 range.
As Nika once said: "OVER THE ROOF"
I'm pretty sure it will have more to do with overcoming the fear of getting hit in the head again. The rest is all secondary.
My opinion on Caroline is that we are trying to get her ready to play a couple of minutes on senior night. That’s the goal.
Changed my mind
Now that would be nice.
Wrong thread
True, but it appears to me that it happens when Geno want to
Yes, that would be nice, a tribute to a very talented player whose career has apparently been cut short of true greatness. But she still has eligibility left either way. So my hope, if she can ever truly be ready and 100% healthy again, is that she along with Sarah lead the team next season.
In the USC, Providence, Marquette, and Villanova games, minutes for both Ice and Jana were lower as Geno went with the smaller lineup.
I think you are safe for now
As we get into February and March, I’ll be surprised if Jana and Kaitlyn are starters. They’ll still get major minutes giving Shade, Paige, Ice, Azzi and Sarah a rest. Kaitlyn, Jana, and KK have roles as subs, because none of them have played well against good defensive teams and none them are known as scorers. Ice has shown me that she can take perimeter shots, and Jana not at all. Kaitlyn, while a good ballhandler, panics when double teamed and picks up her dribble way too much. Of those three, the one that could get a starting role is KK against certain teams, but even there good teams will slack off when she has the ball because she’s not a big threat to score unless it’s in the open court.
